SLICE6 / SLICE6 HB

Ultra-Miniature High-Speed Data Acquisition Systems

We deliver next-generation data acquisition solutions for the most demanding testing environments. The SLICE6 and SLICE6 HB systems represent a breakthrough in ultra-compact, high-speed data acquisition, engineered for applications where space, weight, and precision are critical.

Designed for embedded and in-dummy applications, these systems combine exceptional performance, precise synchronization, and rugged reliability, making them ideal for advanced testing scenarios.

Compact Design for Embedded Applications

The SLICE6 series is built for environments where every millimeter and gram matters:

  • Ultra-miniature size: 24 × 30 × 10 mm
  • Lightweight: ~28 grams
  • Fully standalone DAS with onboard processing and storage
  • Available in two variants:
    • SLICE6 – Standard high-performance system
    • SLICE6 HB – High-bandwidth version for extreme applications

Its compact architecture reduces in-dummy cabling and sensor complexity by up to 75%, enabling cleaner setups and improved measurement reliability.

High-Speed Performance with Precision Timing

Engineered for high-frequency and transient measurements, SLICE6 delivers:

  • Sampling rates up to 400 kS/s per channel
  • 6 channels per module, scalable to hundreds via daisy-chaining
  • Integrated IEEE 1588 PTPv2 synchronization for precise time alignment
  • Built-in Ethernet switch for distributed system synchronization

The SLICE6 HB variant is optimized for high-impact and high-frequency events, making it ideal for crash, military, and extreme dynamic testing.

Rugged & Reliable in Extreme Conditions

Designed to perform in harsh and high-stress environments, SLICE6 systems offer:

  • Shock resistance up to 500 g
  • Operating temperature range: -40°C to +60°C
  • Compliance with MIL-STD-810G
  • IP51-rated environmental protection

These features ensure consistent and reliable data capture, even under extreme mechanical and environmental conditions.
